I am a WordPress website owner and plugins and themes already make my site heavy. I have used multiple plugins and services including ShortPixel and EWWW. But none come close to the might of Optimole. My favourite part about Optimole was the straightforward dashboard that gives me information at a glance about my usage, billing, traffic, and various other metrics. I use Cloudflare CDN, but the fact that this it is a CDN ensures helps better serve my geographically distinct userbase. I have used the free version in the past as well, and even that was quite robust. I used it to lazyload images for better website loading times as well. The native tools help convert my images to WebP without consuming extra storage. This is especially advantageous to people with limited storage on their website hosting plans. The compression levels are automatically adjusted to balance performance and speed. They say they use some ML algorithm to optimise compression, I never understood how it worked, but all I would say is it gets the job done.

As a website owner, it was important for me to optimize my website for the best performance with Images being a critical part of the setup. Optimole is an ideal candidate for my needs. Their easy to use dashboard is ideal to track performance, billing, and more. In addition, I love their WordPress integration. As a WordPress website owner, setting up their entire service was a piece of cake thanks to their plugin. It helped me implement WEBP (A modern image format that is faster than JPG with better image quality.). The effortless conversion of all my old PNG/JPGs massively reduced file sizes. Lazyload also optimised the TTFB for my site improving my overall performance scores on Google Page Speed Insights. One feature, I particularly love about Optimole is Watermarks. As a site with lots of User Generated Content, I frequently need to ensure my Content is not stolen. With Optimole I can add watermark to all my images making them tracable and more detectable. In case of site migrations or downtime, I can quickly download all my existing images on Optimole Server as a ZIP file. My website server is located in India, but our audience is global. So, their global CDN network ensures that my images are cached in servers across the globe, and the user gets the images served from the nearest server saving time.

The best thing about Optimole is its feature of reducing the image size and keeping the image quality which is hard to find in other software. It is also easy and lightweight to use. It helps my website load much faster and rank higher.
